Configure earlier
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: gear still up, sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
At the 500 ft gate: gear still up, sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,721 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,721 m of the 2,851 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 359 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300 taxied from the parking area to runway 07L at PANC, a movement that required 16 minutes and covered 4 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 07L the aircraft used 2,154 m of runway, representing 67 % of the available length, and lifted off at 197 kt; ambient temperature was 21 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 334°, a 6 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt tail-wind component.
The initial climb began 1 nm east of LHD Lake Hood Anchorage, climbing from 1,152 ft asl to 15,851 ft asl-a gain of 14,699 ft-in 7 minutes while covering 35 nm.
A brief level cruise commenced 10 nm east of AQY Girdwood-Alyeska Airport and lasted 2 minutes, during which the aircraft travelled 11 nm.
A second climb segment started 15 nm northeast of PAWR Whittier Airport, ascending from 16,688 ft asl to 33,538 ft asl, an increase of 16,850 ft achieved in 14 minutes over a distance of 123 nm.
The following cruise phase began 41 nm east of PACV Merle K (Mudhole) Smith Airport, extending for 367 minutes and covering 3,199 nm.
Descent commenced 4 nm southeast of Fellsmere, Florida, with the aircraft descending from 34,570 ft asl to 1,843 ft asl-a loss of 32,727 ft-in 25 minutes while traversing 150 nm.
For the final approach to runway 12 at KMIA Miami International Airport the aircraft approached from the northwest on a heading of 118.0° at 2 nm and 1,741 ft agl.
Landing on runway 12 was executed with a threshold speed of 214 kt; touchdown occurred 357 m down the runway at 207 kt and a vertical rate of minus 510 fpm, with perfect alignment at touchdown. The runway length is 2,845 m, the total landing distance measured 1,647 m (58 % of runway), and the local weather reported a temperature of 28 °C, wind 5 kt from 120°, zero cross-wind and a 5 kt head-wind component.
During rollout the aircraft’s path was offset by 15.6 m from the centreline.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
Overall, the flight covered 3,529 nm, required 427 minutes, and consumed 64,378 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 approached runway 12 at KMIA from the north-west on a heading of 118.0° at 2 nm and 1,741 ft agl, with temperature 28 °C, wind 5 kt from 120°, crosswind 0 kt and headwind 5 kt. At the 1,000 ft gate the approach was assessed as unstable: the landing gear was not down, the sink rate was too high and the aircraft was off the glideslope.
At threshold the height was good, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 214 kt.
Touchdown occurred 357 m down the runway, a good distance, with a touchdown speed of 207 kt that was excessively fast and a very hard touchdown rate of -510 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was perfect and the total landing distance was 1,647 m, representing 58 % of the 2,845 m runway.
During rollout the aircraft was misaligned by 15.6 m from the centreline.
Reduce the approach and touchdown speeds toward the target VREF to lessen the hard touchdown rate, and refine flare timing to achieve a smoother transition. Maintaining precise directional control on rollout will correct the centreline deviation observed.
